Drobo 2.0 Released with FireWire 800

Last year we here at NetworkingAudioVideo did a review on the Drobo Home NAS Server from Data Robotics. The Drobo is a device that is designed as a backup device with some hard-core features like multiple drive support. During our review we mentioned the lack of a network connection which puzzled us. Well the newest version, the Drobo 2.0 is still lacking a network connection but it does come with two Firewire 800 ports which is definitely a step-up.
It's good news but at $500 we still want to see a network connection.
